Not directly asked of my but ..

As I think about your phrasing, what I think is I might assume that someone more provocatively dressed might be more available to joke around with. So I might be more informal in my choice of words and playful generally. But that is really grasping at straws.

If what this thread is really asking is whether seeing more skin leads to objectivizing women or seeing them as less respect worthy, then no. Absolutely not.

Lot of stupid threads being opened these days. This takes the candy as far as I am concerned.

You might be surprised to learn that is not necessarily the case. It is most assuredly not true in either Oregon or Washington state, it's only illegal under a list of very specific circumstances.

Context is everything here. Without it the question is impossible to answer, because it's sometimes yes, sometimes no.

And in most parts of the western world it gets you a fine if it is indeed illegal. No difference being made between women or men waving their junk. I always get a little bit amused when seeing the American topless or nip slip hype. That's what you get to see at every public beach. Not only nude beaches.

Hell, even fucking in public earns you a slap on the wrists and a moderate fine. As has been proven by some couples having at it at some shopping street in Croatia last year.

In most cases though people just are asked to get dressed. If they don't show signs of being disturbed or assaulting others, that is.

You must've missed the op of the ScienceAF's feminism thread

I missed out on it on purpose. Does that make me a bad or badly informed person? Sometimes I look at OP and don't feel the need to look at the thread.

You should skip the op and read the thread. I enjoyed it.

You know, my general policy is to not feed them. And this is one in my honest opinion. No way is this a 12 years old. I'm only holding back against he/she/it because someone pointed out the possibility of this being a minor. But for me that's only a remote possibility, so I made it my business to not look at what they're posting.

Hey you do you Abaris. I'm not telling you what to do. Maybe you wouldn't enjoy it. It was a bunch of 20-30 somethings laughing and talking about our awkward teen years mostly. Being silly. ScienceAF wasn't even there for it.
